A Tilapia Production Project in Maria Aurora

-

"Give a man a fish, and you feed him for a day. Teach a man to fish, and you feed him for a lifetime."

These wise words from Chinese philospoher Lao Tzu are the inspiration for a livelihood project that DDGM Rommel Angara and the brethren of Maosnic District Nueva Ecija East and Aurora provided to more than 50 farming households from the municiplaity of Maria Aurora who received more than 400,000 tilapia fingerlings for backyard fish production.  
 

The project was facilitated by Manuel L. Quezon Masonic Lodge No. 262 and Kasiguruhan Masonic Lodge No. 423 with the support of the National Freshwater Fisheries Technology Center of the Bureau of Fisheries and Aquatic Resources through VW Angelito Dela Cruz (DGL) who provided the tilapia fngerlings, and aims to provide an additional source of income for poor farming households. 

Beyond the fingerlings distribution, DDGM Rommel and the Municipal Government of Maria Aurora through Mayor Ariel Bitong and Bro. Coun. Eleazar Palermo, and Board Members Jake Galvan and Santy Palmero also committed the required support services for the actual production phase. 

Indeed, together brethren!
